Today marks 19 months & 16 days Kalia has been a part of our family….1 day longer than she spent in an orphanage with no family to call her own.

These past 19 months have been such a blessing! She has come so very far since that wonderful moment when she was placed in our arms. She has brought so much joy to our lives. Her smile & laughter are contagious (& often get her out of trouble…yes, it’s that cute!). Throughout her struggles to catch up, she has taught us so much. Me especially. She’s beautiful & amazing…just the way she is.

And I couldn’t imagine life without her in it.

When I see your faceThere's not a thing that I would changeCause you're amazingJust the way you areAnd when you smile,The whole world stops and stares for awhileCause girl you're amazingJust the way you are

~Just the Way you Are…Bruno Mars~

We are so very blessed to have you in our lives, Kalia. I’m so thankful God chose us to be a witness to all the great things he has in store for you. We love you so very, very much!

Quote of the Day

PHIL 6:6-9

6) Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7) And the peace of God which transcends all understanding will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. 8) Finally,brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable - if anything is excellent or praiseworthy - think about such things. 9) Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me - put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.
